RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA, USA, May 22, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — America’s Boating Channel™, the U.S. Coast Guard funded boating safety and boater education video service, produced by United States Power Squadrons® (USPS), will highlight the Corps Foundation (CF) videos on its new smart TV services Tuesday May 23 during the National Safe Boating Week (NSBW) promotional campaign.
NSBW, taking place May 20-26, is the official kick-off of the 2023 Safe Boating Campaign, a year-long global awareness effort that encourages boaters to make the most of their boating adventure by being responsible.
In announcing the CF promotion, America’s Boating Channel’s Vice President of Smart TV, Kathy Strachan, noted that, “The Corps Foundation’s ‘Life Jackets Worn… Nobody Mourns’ videos represent a tremendous resource for boaters on our nation’s waterways. Together, our videos represent the next best thing to being on the water.”
On Tuesday May 23, following Saturday, Sunday, and Monday’s highlighting of titles from the National Safe Boating Council (NSBC), Water Sports Foundation (WSF), and the ACA (American Canoe Association), CF videos will be featured as the leading category on America’s Boating Channel’s video on-demand app on Roku and FireTV.
The Corps Foundation’s Grant Manager Rachel Garren remarked, “We are pleased to team with America’s Boating Channel on this special promotion during National Safe Boating Week. The messages in the ‘Life Jackets Worn… Nobody Mourns’ series of videos are exactly what recreational boaters need to see and hear as they resume boating this year.”
CF’s collections of videos cover four seasons of the Life Jackets Worn…Nobody Mourns campaign including such titles as “Close Calls,” “Family Traditions,” “Safety Looks Good on Everyone,” “Protect Yourself All Ways,” and many others.
